I need a reliable voice on the other end of the line for my brand-new private counseling practice. When prospective clients call, you will: • answer promptly and warmly • give a clear overview of our counseling services so each caller feels informed and at ease • gather three key pieces of information during every intake: basic personal details, the reason they’re seeking counseling, and their preferred appointment times • secure a spot on our calendar for them using my online scheduling tool Because this is a first impression for many clients, professionalism, accuracy, and empathy are essential. Calls will come in during standard business hours at first, with occasional growth into evenings and weekends as the practice expands; I’m open to hearing how you would handle those after-hours rings. Deliverables are simple: every completed intake entered into the scheduling system and a brief call summary emailed to me immediately afterward so I can prepare for the session. If you are organized, tech-savvy, and genuinely enjoy helping people take their first step toward counseling, I’d love to work together.

Hi, Being the first voice a prospective client hears when reaching out for counseling matters — a warm, professional intake can make the difference between someone following through or hesitating. I bring both the customer support discipline and the empathy this role calls for: I maintained a 100% satisfaction rating handling high-volume calls and chats in a Meta-supported CSR role, and I take genuine care in making people feel heard, not just processed. For each call, I'd answer promptly, walk callers through your services clearly, and gather the essentials — their details, why they're reaching out, and preferred times — before booking them directly into your scheduling tool. You'd get a concise summary emailed right after each call so you're prepared before the session even starts. I'm based in Lagos (GMT+1) and structure my hours around US and UK business schedules, so I can comfortably cover your standard hours now, with flexibility to extend into evenings or weekends as your practice grows — happy to talk through how a rotating or on-call setup might work for those after-hours calls. Would it help if I outlined a sample intake script so you can see exactly how I'd handle a first call?
